In Lost Child an Army veteran suffering from Ptsd returns home to see her brother but before she does she discovers a young boy living in the woods. From this she discovers local town folklore about monsters and demons which make her question taking the child in.
The story sounds like a typical low budget horror but thankfully Lost Child never really heads down that route despite constantly teasing to. And I’m still not sure whether I would have preferred it to or not. Instead it takes a much more serious tone with hints of horror but a more real-life horror. The demons are both real and imaginary.
Lost Child does have a slow pace to it.

"How is it you came to live out here in these woods?" Breaking Glass Pictures has debuted an official trailer for a thriller titled Lost Child, formerly titled Tatterdemalion when it first premiered at a few small film festivals last year. Lost Child, a new film by filmmaker Ramaa Mosley (of The Brass Teapot), is about an army veteran who returns home and finds an abandoned young boy in the woods. As she searches for clues to the boy's identity, she discovers the local folklore about a spirit which comes in the form of a child. Oooh.
